§ Mr. Marksasked the Secretary of State for Transport (1) if he will authorise and make financial provision for the construction of a high safety fence adjacent to the M67 motorway at St. Anne's school, Denton, as part of the necessary accommodation works;
(2) if he is now in a position to pay the agreed compensation arising from the construction of the M67—Hyde bypass—which opened two years ago, to the St. Anne's Church, Denton.
§ Mr. Kenneth ClarkeWe have now agreed with the school authorities that we will provide a safety fence at our expense.
We expect to pay the agreed compensation early in the new year as soon as the legal formalities have been completed.
